Don't know if this has been fixed yet because this is actually cvs as of a couple of nights ago, but this was not a problem in php 3.0.6.

If you run fsockopen on an old slackware linux, the nslookup doesn't work, but it will do the lookup if the name is in the hosts file.  This seems to me like several programs lately have had this problem in that redhat seems to return dns differently than slackware.  Maybe other byte order??? This does not cause a problem on redhat 5.2 system.

Anyways thought you guys might wanna know.  If anyone out there has been running my cybercash stuff and it has been sending weird error stuff back, this is the reason.  New versions of the code call this "unable to contact credit processor"

Please resubmit, if it still happens.
